“[W]e similarly acknowledge that the normal purpose behind license revocations, regardless of the variety of license involved, is to protect the public from persons who, through the use of their license, have endangered or harmed others_ Removing from offenders their license to engage in the activity, when they have displayed an inability to make proper and safe use of the privilege, is a common-sense and practical approach to ensuring that they will not endanger the public in the future.”
